John Ivison: If 2025 becomes the mortgage-pain election, the Liberals have already lost

Sometimes, politics is simple.

Occasionally, voters disregard all the noise, look at their own personal circumstance and vote accordingly.

That would not bode well for the Liberals in next year’s election.

In the House of Commons on Monday, Conservative Leader, Pierre Poilievre, pointed out that three-quarters of the outstanding mortgages in the country will be coming up for renewal before the end of 2026.


As predicted on this blog, Trudeau is working to support sky high real estate prices in cities to protect his urban vote base.

Trudeau says real estate needs to be more affordable, but lowering home prices would put retirement plans at risk

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says his government aims to make housing more affordable for younger Canadians without bringing down home prices for existing homeowners.

Cutting shelter costs while ensuring that homeowners’ property values remain high could be viewed as contradictory, but Mr. Trudeau was adamant that property owners would not lose out.

“Housing needs to retain its value,” Mr. Trudeau told The Globe and Mail’s City Space podcast. “It’s a huge part of people’s potential for retirement and future nest egg.”

Mass immigration will be maintained at unsustainable levels to force housing prices ever higher and drive rents out of reach.

Trudeau’s corporate cronies will reap a bonanza from the shortages mass immigration brings not the least of which is depressed wages.
